Combining two of my passions: design and audio production, I decided to create an off-the-shelf solution specifically for teams building products, noticing few offerings exist that meet this need.
I synthesized, recorded, programmed and edited over a thousand sounds for hundreds of use-cases. Teaming up with a talented engineer and copywriter, developed naming, art-direction, defined branding, designed a website and partnership development.
UIDIO is both a sound design company providing custom solutions while offering customers with a turnkey solution of hand-crafted audio designed for specifically for product experiences - crafted and mastered using some of the most beloved mics, synths, samplers and hardware.
